JAMES BOND star Daniel Craig said he cannot wait for fans to see the movie as he took to the red carpet at the world premiere of Spectre.

Craig, who was the first star to arrive, told red carpet host Rick Edwards: “It’s just fantastic to see everybody out tonight. I’m not overwhelme­d, I’m very excited and I can’t wait for people to see the movie.

He added that he “hated” watching himself on screen, but said “I love playing James Bond.”

David Walliams and Good Morning Britain’s Susanna Reid slipped into one of the movies’ cars to arrive in style at the premiere.

Walliams and Reid arrived in the silver 1951 Rolls-Royce from the movie, which is featured as Bond drives through the Sahara.

Walliams, Reid and Rick Edwards hosted the red carpet coverage and interviewe­d all of the big stars, including Craig.

Actress Naomie Harris said she was looking forward to a redcarpet reunion with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge at the premiere.

Harris and her co-stars including Craig, Christoph Waltz, Ben Whishaw and Ralph Fiennes, met Prince William, his wife Kate and Prince Harry ahead of the screening of the latest 007 adventure at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

They were joined by the franchise’s newcomers, Andrew Scott, Dave Bautista and Bond girls Lea Seydoux and Monica Bellucci.

The film opened nationally last night, too.
